Prologue
"Eccomi finalmente… il sole è così vicino.
Niente, però, è comparabile ai tuoi occhi…" Lightning
The train has stopped, Chochon Station, I feel awesome, as i never was.
My name is Lightning, many remember me as Lightning, the Goddess who save humanity from oblivion.
In this new world, Leshon, people don't know much about my story and it's better like this.
I don't like to be at the center of the stage, I'm not like my dear friend Snow. Today i'm dressed very great, better than usual. I bought this pants in a shop of Farlon where Fang and Vanille live.
The two girls had opened a restaurant and it's going very good for them.
Today I'm coming back to my sister Sarah's home, my little pearl! She and that cocky of my brother in law Snow are celebrating their third anniversary.
Here it is, I get out from the train with my red purse and I'm ready to say hell to my family and friends.
I'm traveling from months and frankly I'm a bit tired, I'd like to sleep for hours but the party will keep me busy.
Serah is waiting for me on the other side of the road, she's so beatiful. She does the teacher in Chochon's school.
She runs through me and I don't know why but the tears get out from my eyes, my little sister, the reason of my salvation.
I hug her so strongily and I feel her warmth wrapping me so candidly. Serah looks at me so deeply and I feel at home once again.
«Welcome back! Lightning!»
«Serah…» I whisper without leave my hug.
«It's been months since I don't hear your voice! You're so gorgeous Claire!»
«You too…»
Serah take my hands and she smiles at me, her smile is os special that always move me.
«Come... let's go home!»
We run to the parking lot, there are several cars inside and one of them it's my sister's.
This world's cars are common, an engine, tires and they need water to start. a glass of water and you can travel for a month.
Serah's car is long two meters and it's very nice, is a purple car with black window, you cannot see inside.
«Jump on Lightning!» she invites me to enter and I open the door, the seat is so comfortable, not like that one of the train! My ass is so sore!
I fall asleep during the travel listening to the song singed by Serah , "Cradled in Love" of the Poets Of The Fall… a band who will play at tonight's party.
Snow took care of all! Today the "hero" is a Chochon police captain and he's loved by everyone.
It's nice to see that some things never change.
Serah wake me up slowly, she know that I'm untreatable if someone wake me up roughly
I open my eyes and we get out of the car, Serah and Snow's house is freaking beatiful.
A very big villa full of light and sweet love, that love we lost during our journey, from Cocoon to the very depths of Hell and beyond, now we're free.
«Hey Sis!»
A voice that I'll never forget, I turn myself and Snow is here and he's smiling at me.
I look at him and I don't believe myself, he doesn't have that horrible hat with him, cured facial hair, blond hair very clean. The last time I saw him was so full of dirt, he was chasing two thiefs through all the city.
I look at him and I smile.
«Damn! Even this world is coming to an end! Lightning is smiling! It's a rare and ultimate event! Did you hear the earthquake?»
Serah smile as I give him a little punch on Snow's shoulder and he smiles back at me, we always had been like this, like brothers we always keep each other stand and looking in his eyes I can see that light that he had lost through the journey, all thanks to my Serah.
«So are you ready for the party of the century?»
«I guess so Snow…»
« Come on, let's get inside!» Serah invites us in.
They get inside their house and I stopped a moment alone, I look the sky and I can finally say that I'm feeling at home.
